Police have charged three men in connection with incidents of disorder at a recent Highland derby football match.
Smoke bombs were thrown onto the pitch and seats were damaged at the most recent clash between Ross County and Inverness Caley Thistle.
A 16-year-old male from Inverness has been charged with causing damage to seats in the North Stand at the stadium.
In addition, a 20-year-old man from Inverness and a 22 year-old-man from Aviemore have been charged in relation to throwing the smoke generators onto the pitch during the game.
All three of the men are expected to appear on undertaking at Inverness Sheriff Court on June 1.
Match Commander Inspector Alasdair Macleod said: “The vast majority of fans behave appropriately and we continue to work with our partners to ensure the games can be enjoyed in a safe environment.
“Disorder of any kind will not be tolerated and those who choose to behave in this way will be dealt with robustly.”
The derby match took place on the evening of April 28, but the kick-off was delayed by 15 minutes due to a collision between two cars just north of Inverness.
The accident happened on the northbound dual carriageway section of the A9 Inverness-Thurso road, near to the North Kessock junction.
One person was injured as a result of the crash but their injuries were not thought to be serious.
A black Citroen car was damaged on both the driver and passenger sides, and the back right wheel of a grey Porsche Boxster had detached from the car. Ambulance crews assessed two people on scene and one was taken to Raigmore Hospital.
The road was reopened to one lane of traffic soon after the accident, which meant the game was only slightly delayed.
The football match itself resulted in a 4-0 win for the home team.
